I was in my local dealers at the weekend and they mentioned a facelift for the 108 is due out soon.

Anyone heard anything about it?

What is a face lift when it comes to a car??? Are they changing the design of the whole car? or just giving it a splash of paint?

A facelift is small changes, such as a new front panel design, or new light styles etc., they might chuck in a new engine or fiddle with the suspension everynow and then, but the underneaths usually stay the same. A new model often comes with a new Mk number and distinguishable design (e.g. the 107 to 108)

The Peugeot 107 went through a facelift in 2009.

The same thing happened to the 208 recently, going through a facelift in 2015.

So it looks like Peugeot work on a four year cycle. The 108 was launched in 2014 so maybe we'll see something next year?
